Brian Kelly is leaving the program to take the head coaching job at LSU. That left the Notre Dame coaching job vacant for the first time since Charlie Weis was fired exactly 12 years ago to the day on Nov. 30, 2009.
Notre Dame is in the hunt for a College Football Playoff spot or one of the best New Year’s Six bowl games out there.
Notre Dame finished its regular season with a strong 11-1 record.
